Same as Ocado.

I've been doing my food shops online for years now and always use either Morrisons or Ocado for my Christmas shop without any problems. Booked my slot in October as I usually do

One of the drivers told me that the same drivers do morrisons and Ocado, they only know which one they’re doing when they get to work in the morning...

Always keep a frozen turkey in reserve at Christmas, eat it for a Sunday roast later on. Makes any ordering situations less stressful although not needed it yet

Got mine from Costco last year and same this year. It’s labelled Jimmys Farm and it’s v good. I tracked down the place that supplies Jimmies Farm (its next door) and both buying direct from them as their own brand, and direct from Jimmys Farm was more expensive than exactly the same turkey from Costco. Its delivered in a box on Friday.

Great idea except if you are picking the order up on Christmas Eve like many seem to do, there won't be enough time for it to defrost.

That is true, personally I wouldn't leave it that late, we picked up a vacuum packed fresh crown a few days earlier this year - I've never waited till Christmas eve

Sounds more like an Ostrich than turkey. Lucky they didn’t order half a dozen eggs too !

My supermarket order is still showing the crown as ordered but in the meantime, my grandaughter's godfather went to the meat market in London early this morning for his own family and has brought me back a turkey butterfly - looks huge on the photo he sent. Never cooked one before so if anyone has any ideas?
